When Sikong Liang came in, he pushed open the door, bringing in a gust of night breeze, which made people feel cool.

Xianglan, who was waiting next to her, hurriedly added a rose-red gray squirrel skin cloak for the second aunt, and the whole person felt a lot warmer, and she looked very energetic, but she looked beaming.

Sikong Liang was naturally stunned, and couldn't look away, but said that it was the second aunt and Xianglan, hurry, Xianglan saluted the general, and then, under the pretext of preparing tea, he retreated first.

Allowing the second aunt to stare at her as if she was asking for help, Xianglan ignored it so much, finally the general came and at this moment, if she stayed and disturbed the two of them to cultivate their relationship between husband and wife, it would be a great crime.

It's just that after Xianglan left, the second aunt faced Sikong Liang alone, more or less embarrassed and overwhelmed. Although the two of them are husband and wife on the surface, no, she can only be regarded as his concubine, and the status of the lady in the main room is a big difference.

But the real two people don't spend much time alone, and there are not many opportunities to get close at all. And over the years, she has worshiped the Buddha in order to forgive her sins, but also to avoid those worldly disputes and live the rest of her life with a pure heart and few desires.

Now I want her to be alone with Sikong Liang to get along with each other, this, how is this good? He didn't dare to speak, he stood on the side with his head down, his hands were respectfully put together, and his attitude was very humble.

However, he raised his eyes from time to time, as if he wanted to peek at the man. Once his eyes met the boss's bright gaze, but he was like a frightened deer, he quickly lowered his eyes and made a correct appearance of looking at his eyes, nose, nose, mouth, mouth, and heart.

This is the uniqueness of the second aunt, she is already the mother of a child, but she still has a girlish and shy look, which makes people feel fluttering when they see it.

Sikong Liang stretched out his hand, wanting to touch the white jade-like delicate face, but he was afraid to refuse. Laughing secretly in his heart, he is useless, in front of her, he will always be as helpless as a hairy young man in his early twenties.

Bai Lan didn't know what to say. Just raised his head and smiled at Sikong Liang's bright eyes, such a rare kind smile gave the general a great encouragement, and he finally mustered up the courage to go straight to her......

And in the outer room. Xianglan had just prepared tea and walked to the door, when the general came, she naturally wanted to help her aunt serve her. Who knows, just walked over, but suddenly saw that the candle in the house was extinguished.

With a light smile, Xianglan walked back to the ear room next to her and put down the things in her hand. And inside, in addition to her, there is also an old woman. But he didn't always follow the second aunt to serve.

"Mama, it's done." The smile on Xianglan's face was very light.

Waiting by the side of the second aunt, although the master has a good temper and never beats and scolds the subordinates, but because she has no status in the mansion, relatively speaking, she is also a subordinate, Xianglan and the others seem to be inferior compared with other subordinates in the mansion.

Pandan, like vanilla taro and others, was originally the lowest maid and was assigned to different masters. Originally thought. As long as they serve them wholeheartedly, they will definitely have a good future in the future.

Of course, Vanilla is now a first-class maid next to the eldest lady and a confidant of the eldest lady. Who in the house is not superior?

Although the taro has just been assigned to the second lady as a second-class maid now, she is also obedient to her wife and receives two monthly orders. This is also well known to everyone in the house, and if you are sent out by your wife to other courtyards, it will naturally be beneficial if you can be heartfelt with your wife again.

And Xianglan was assigned to a second aunt who didn't like to compete for favor, seemed to have no quarrel with the world, no desire and no desire, but in fact she was not very capable and had no scheming. So far, she has also received the monthly silver of the first-class maid every month, but the second aunt has few rewards, and it is difficult for her to get rewards from other masters, and her life is not as good as those little sisters.

Recently, Xianglan's old son and mother brought a letter, saying that her brother wanted to say goodbye, but her parents were short-handed and couldn't get the money they were hired, and they wanted to ask her to help.

Although she was sold into the General's Mansion by her family for a few taels of silver, at least she had to live a much better life in the General's Mansion than her brother working at home over the years, how could Xianglan not listen to her father and mother and help her brother?

But she is really short-handed, she can't take out a tael of silver, on the face of saying that it is the eldest girl next to the second aunt, and she has a master who does not do anything, and the monthly silver of four taels per month is deducted into two taels, and the real hand is less than one tael.

Even if there is no way to complain, I don't know who to talk to, and when the housekeeper's mother sees her, all of them have eyes that are not eyes and noses, and her master will not help her fight anyway.

At the beginning of the year, I accidentally got sick, and all the silver taels I had saved were spent, and the second aunt didn't even bother to care about her life or death.

has been by the second aunt's side for many years, and Xianglan also knows her temperament, not that the second aunt is vicious or anything, but she is really kind-hearted and doesn't want to compete with her wife for favor, so she simply doesn't ask anything.

thought that it was like this, destined to be an unfilial girl, Xianglan just continued to work by the side of the second aunt, thinking that she could do her duty.

Unexpectedly, it was these days, but things took a turn for the better, first of all, the general came back, Xianglan knew that no matter what, the second aunt was also a general's woman, as soon as he came back, those housekeepers and mothers were all discerning, so naturally they didn't dare to bully the people in the second aunt's room too much.

Second, it is strange to say that the second lady, who has always ignored her aunt and only followed her husband in the past, suddenly seems to have changed her temperament, and will come to visit her aunt on purpose.

After the second miss came, the second lady's nurse Rong Mama specially came to find Xianglan several times, first thanking her for her best to serve her aunt over the years.

Xianglan didn't think much about it at first, after all, Mama Rong was also with her second aunt at first, and it was normal to have a master-servant friendship with her. A few more times, between Mama's words, it was mentioned intentionally or unintentionally, the second lady is now older, and there are many things that need to be decided by parents, but Mrs. General is not her own mother after all, how can she really love her daughter?

Xianglan is also a smart person, and immediately, she recited these words in front of her second aunt, several times a day, including the recent events in the house. Especially this afternoon, someone came to the door and almost ruined the innocence of the second lady, and her life was over.

Of course, Xianglan didn't dare to hide it, but it was inevitable, those words were a bit of a spice, emphasizing that the second lady was in danger and was almost killed.

In the middle of the sound, the second aunt finally spoke, although her face was still indifferent as she saw on weekdays: "Don't you say that Mrs. treats her very well and treats her as her own?" ”

"Hmph, after all, it didn't come out of your own stomach, how good can it be? Auntie, you, you are too kind-hearted and have been deceived. "The second aunt is not a little kind, and Xianglan talks to her very casually.

This is also the reason why the treatment of following the second aunt is not good, but Xianglan is also willing to serve. After all, a lot of money also needs to be taken with a life.

One of her fellow villagers, who worked as an errand in the Shangshu family of the Ministry of War, was the family of the general's wife's mother's family. At first, he was still elated, saying that the master was bold and rewarded a lot of money for doing things for them.

Later, I heard that the female dependents of Jiang Shangshu's family were only gentle on the outside, but they were actually not very good-tempered. If she doesn't like her, she will beat and scold her subordinates to get angry.

This is what her fellow villagers secretly told her, how can outsiders know the true face of those so-called famous ladies?

Later, her fellow fell ill and died for no reason, at a young age, before he was sixteen years old. Because Jiang Shangshu rewarded their family with a silver ingot, this matter was settled, and no one doubted the cause of her death.

Xianglan was vaguely clear in her heart, before that, it happened that she went out of the house to help her second aunt buy incense candles and other things, and met a fellow countryman. The villager had a sad face, and there were even blood marks on his arms, so he asked her, and it took a long time to tell Xianglan that the master was in a bad mood and beat her a few times.

A big living person died like this, but no one investigated the reason, and even her family only took the money and didn't ask much about it. Xianglan felt panicked, and all superfluous worries were dispelled, it was her blessing to meet a good-natured master like the second aunt, and she still couldn't be too greedy.

After all, the second lady is the aunt's own daughter, and she is deeply favored by the general, if she can help plan it, let the aunt get the general's attention again, and improve their current living situation.

understood what Mama Rong meant, and knew that my brother was able to marry his sister-in-law smoothly, thanks to the secret help of the second lady. Of course, Xianglan was grateful in her heart, single-minded, thinking that she would help the second lady in the future.

Hearing Xianglan say this, the second aunt was vaguely worried in her heart, she didn't understand it before, but she felt very powerless and too lazy to ask. But if her daughter is really persecuted, how can she, a mother, not care?

The last time she went to see it secretly, her daughter fell into the water and couldn't wake up, and her haggard appearance was not at all like what everyone saw on the surface, the second lady of the general's mansion with infinite scenery.

After all, she is just a concubine, and she is such a useless mother-in-law, what good future can she have?

In the past few days, Xianglan has said a lot in front of her second aunt, which is nothing more than that although Mrs. has a lot of power, it is the general who lets her do it, and in this mansion, the real master is still the general. As long as you can get the trust and love of the general, why worry about not having a good life in the future? Just like Madame, the eldest lady born to Madame is naturally much stronger than the second lady.

Bai Lan immediately understood the hidden meaning of Xianglan's words, and even guessed who taught her. After all, the man had persuaded her like this before. But it's really a bit difficult for her to put down her body to please Sikong Liang.

In any case, Bai Lan can't forget that it was Sikong Liang, who killed her husband, and it was also Sikong Liang, who caused Dawn's dignified daughter to now be the second lady who was a concubine in a general's mansion. (To be continued.) )
